THE PROPERTY
Location and style are so important, as this interesting mid-Century detached house in the heart of the Village shows. Standing at the centre of a deep plot almost hidden from view on the historic High Street, this spacious 2,400sq/ft property will appeal to those appreciative of a more individual era of design, the large picture windows bringing natural light to the flowing interior whilst affording some delightful views out.
On the market for the first time since built circa 1958 and now requiring some modernisation, the property is entered via a large glazed entrance hall leading into the open-plan family/dining room. Additionally, the generous ground floor space then includes a nearly ballroom-size living room overlooking the secluded rear garden and providing wonderful entertaining space. Completing the ground floor is a kitchen/breakfast room with utility room off and guest cloakroom, plus the adjacent walled courtyard garden which forms an integral part of the house.
Upstairs are 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, with the second bedroom presently linked to the impressive master bedroom. This has a Juliet Balcony with delightful views over the garden and ample built-in storage, plus an en-suite shower room.
Outside the large garden plot is a unique and special feature of this house, ideally located for village life whilst providing privacy. The deep lawned frontage has mature trees around and behind is a similar size garden, beautifully planted and maintained. Also included is an attached garage and easy driveway parking. Overall, the house has great potential and will suit a buyer ready to take on a straightforward project.
Harrow on the Hill village is a Conservation Area often described as an 'oasis' 10 miles from London, with a unique atmosphere and great road and rail connections to the City and the Home Counties. From its origins as a medieval settlement and the seat of the famous Harrow School, it has many green spaces known only to locals, independent coffee shops, cocktail bars & restaurants for entertaining and a friendly, cohesive community.
The historic buildings of the world-famous Harrow School are part of the picturesque Hill, the school kindly sharing its first class facilities with Hill residents who can enjoy membership of its Fitness Club with state of the art gym and 25 meter swimming pool, lawn tennis club and golf club. The Friends of Harrow School caters for those interested in the Arts with free concerts, plays and lectures, and the Harrow Hill Trust organizes community events and guided walks.
